On Saturday, August 19, 2017, social worker/psychotherapist Toni Rahman, originally from Missouri, produced a Pop-Up Clinic to introduce alternative healing practitioners to each other at a Lake Chapala, Mexico refuge.
After a sage “cleansing” and blessing by Toltec shamanic student and host Craig Shanholtzer, nine persons introduced themselves and the work they do. An additional seven friends who support healing solutions came to learn and experience what the nine offer, and, to help get the word out to the community-at-large about resources at the lake.
It was a beautiful day spent on an inviting porch, in a splendid garden, or in quiet rooms either giving or receiving. “Magical”, “relaxing”, “wonderful” are the comments I heard.


Some healing arts folks who were present:

Toni Rahman – psychotherapist, EMDR practitioner, angel card reader, and author of the newly released Being in My Body http://www.ToniRahman.com
Kim Campbell – Canadian massage therapist with training in osteopathy

Doris Diaz – Kundalini yoga instructor, originally from Venezuela and Guadalajara, now a resident at the lake
